Grab the guide at www.qbcpod.com Is your light environment more important than the food you eat? How does sunlight help depression? Does a barefoot walk outside boost your immune system? Hosted by Meredith Oke, The Quantum Biology Collective Podcast features pioneering health professionals who study, apply and explain the emerging field of applied quantum biology. It's a new paradigm of understanding how human health REALLY works that is light years beyond the current traditional medical model. Quantum biology, or biophysics, is the bridge from the bio-chemical, newtonian model to the new paradigm of energy medicine that view our bodies as electric liquid crystal, not machines. From the vast research showing that circadian rhythms regulate every important process and pathway in the body, to emerging research that quantum mechanical processes are taking place in our cells—this new world is the missing link that you’re searching for.

You get outside when you can. You've done the work. But if your windows were installed in the last 25 years, they're quietly stripping out the very wavelengths your biology runs on — and the fix is simpler than you think. Guest Bio Joe Menchefski is a chemical engineer with an MBA in Marketing whose career has been shaped by one question: how do we build spaces that actually support the people inside them? His introduction to the glazing industry came in 1996, managing polycarbonate and acrylic sheet extrusion operations, and he has worked with Advanced Glazings for 18 years. An experienced marketing and sales professional and entrepreneur, Joe is also the host of Better Buildings for Humans , a YouTube channel featuring conversations with the world's leading researchers on daylighting, views, indoor environmental quality, and sustainability.
